Yes. Flash can jump to play a particular frame, whether you
put the symbols in the correct places or not. (Flash doesn't know
if they are correct or not, computers do what we tell them, not
what we want.)

The code is

this.gotoAndStop(10);

Which sends the timeline the code is on (this) to its frame
10 where it stops.

myClip.gotoAndPlay(23);

Sends the movieclip called myClip which is on the current
timeline to its frame 23 from where it will continue to
play.
